You women have heard of Jalopies
You've heard the noise they make
Let me introduce my Rocket 88
Yes, it's great, just won't wait
Everybody loves Frank's Rocket 88
A V8 motor baby, it's modern design
Step in my Rocket, don't be late
Pulling out about half past eight
Move on out, movin' and cruisin' along!
